Borah bivy sizing

[NEhunter]

I've been looking at ordering a Borah bivy for inside an SL3 and was wondering what you guys are ordering for size. Specifically the width. From everything I have read, they seem do be wider to begin with. I am ~175lbs, running a Big Agnes IAC for a pad and like to sleep on my stomach and side.

I would go with the wide.

Thanks Brock, that is kinda what I was looking at going with and just got a reply earlier from John at Borah recommending the same. I just didnt want to add additional material if I didnt need it.

No problem. We use the same pad and I'm a side sleeper as well. Wide is a good fit for me.

On a similar note, would the Borah fit a large Xtherm pad ok? Wide better? Side sleeper here.

Ordered borah bivy. Good value. Email John, he will answer.
He told me that ba q-core sl 78x25x3.5 would fit into large/wide
